Yeah, I took a bit of a hiatus there, didn't I? I honestly didn't plan on being away from Culture Kills for that long, and things sort of got away from me.

I mean, it's been 3 months, which in some cases is a lifetime.

Like I have to admit it was sort of refreshing not having the self-applied pressure to blog every day or to simply come up with things to write about, because back in May, my well was running dry.

Strangely enough, the first time I was thinking about coming back was the morning of that terrible shooting in Aurora, but when I awoke that day and read about what had happened, it didn't seem like the appropriate time to be lighthearted. So I waited.

I am not going to make any promises, and I am not going to blog with the expectation that I am going to do so every day or even on some form of schedule. I am just going to play this whole thing by ear now and see what happens, because after six years of doing my thing here at Culture Kills, I think I may have earned myself a little flex time, and who knows... maybe the posts I make in the future will actually be better without the pressure of production.

See, something I've noticed about you in terms of blogging is you get a killer idea and you start a blog about it and you start off really strong but then either time or inclination gets away from you.
